Thank y’all for such a prompt response. I’ve had orange spots too. What are the culprits for them?

What does RBO & DOSSY mean?

Trying to respond CP is anagram for cold processed soap when soap is poured into molds right after trace when pourable. But the lye fumes really burn my eyes if curing in house. HP is hot processed when the soap is cooked till done and supposedly there’s no lye left. But it’s still there...

I’ll try to find a way to message privately. Maybe someone has advice for me. I’m really new to forum communication protocol and unsure of all techy stuff. Born in 1950! It may have something to do with the upper lines of doo dads at top o page

Read your post and am thrilled to know you. Your a person I relate to in that I’ve had a detached retina, dry eyes (many dry eye solutions have ironically sodium hydroxide in them as buffers!) and was a special ed teacher teaching my behavioral students science & cooking. I’ve only been making...

Well, like I stated on another thread?, I acquired raccoon fat, rendered it 3 times til scentless clear and today I cooked it up at 160’ w/cocoa b, coconut oil, and diffused frankincense, myrrh & DB in canola oil. I’ve been making HP using yogurt & coconut cream at end. Used MMS Christmas...

Good for you! I’m remaking bars now from fresh made and older bars. Also, rendering oil from 2 fatty raccoons we ate for 1st time ever. Really clean animals by way white fat and red meat. No gamy smell or taste. Beautiful clear soft oil. Beef is comparable. Some groceries don’t have meat in...

I’ve always loved old libraries that have old books in them waiting for me to discover what I don’t know yet. I learned to love the nonfiction about “sailing around the world” stories of men and real women who either finished the trip for their captain husband ( she was navigator for trip) that...

I just have calendula flws showing pretty orange & yellow waiting to have an oil soak for shampoo soap bars. Calendula is so smooth & nourishing on skin. Chamomile does my tummy good, not much power for me in soap. Like the colors in that passion fruit bar soap.

Sounds refreshing. I love greens in color and smell. Fresh!

I remade some 2 yr old CP shampoo bars that need superfatted. I added argon jojoba marula. Silk collagen & lavender peppermint EOs. It melted great in microwave defrost and went very fast. Can’t wait to use it on this old mop of mine.

I also made frankincense & myrrh for Christmas soaps. I ground up some f. & m. tears and heated it in coconut oils until melted. A lightly scented exotic fragrance with a red clay charcoal pencil line. Added frankincense EO. Smooth as if I added silk. Also added Dragonblood resin tears for...

I just remake soap that I don’t like. Grate, add an ounce of mixed yogurt and coconut cream per pound over soap in a 210 oven for 3-4 hrs stirring every 45 To an hour until smooth enuf to pour. I even add a FO or EO that compliments soaps existing smell. Gonna remake shampoo adding extra...

I add cedarwood Virginia, fir, any woodsy EOs (bay rum & patchouli, tiny tat of peppermint in small amounts) to vodka. & use it as a spray deodorant for hot Fl days. I’m an old hippie anyways. I also make a room spray when I cool collard greens or fish.
